Setting a model, hundreds of graves being shifted religiously for NH 66 expansion at Vettichira
Malappuram district is one of the finest experimental grounds in the State. It has piloted several successful schemes, including Akshaya. And now, the ongoing National Highway 66 expansion too is witnessing a religious and emotional experience that should serve a model for future development of the State.
For the first time in the State’s history, hundreds of graves are being shifted for NH 66 expansion at Vettichira, between Valanchery and Kottakkal. The Vettichira Juma Masjid mahal committee has taken the historic decision to shift a large part of its graveyard for the road expansion.
